Marta lays in contemplation
Thinking thoughts,
Emancipation,
Where will she
And Nalago go?
Delight and trepidation
Grow.
Pieter says that if she will
His needs, desires
Now still fulfil
That he will help
In every way,
Provide the things
She needs today.
She really knows
She has no choice
No freedom yet
And still no voice.
Marta hopes her day will come
And looks toward the setting sun.
