Forsaking,

the angel shaking,

he evidently feared the worst,

there would be blame,

of course, shame,

then all proof of life gone,

the beast growled angrily,

staring at the cold wall,

darkness would call,

humans would fall,

then the angel,

his face was streaked with tears,

heart filled with fears,

yet,

with all that,

he possessed a clear inner dignity.
