A Time Ago

Ali & ZigA time ago — when I was young —
A towhead boy of five,
I ran and jumped, a sword it hung
So grandly by my side.

No dragon was too fierce for me,
No pirate made me run–
I slew them each, ah–could it be
Courage was simply fun?

A time ago — when I was young —
My head began to whirl,
My sword became a bitter tongue,
I learned I was a girl.
