A/N- For the record, I hate Ozai's guts. And I'm not that good with poems, so…

Disclaimer: Sadly, I do not own this Über fantastic show.

The Fire Lord is a symbol of power

A symbol of strength

One to be feared

And yet...

Behind the title

Behind the mask

Behind the flames

There is a man.

An angry

Depressed, confused soul

One who has suffered loss

Humiliation

And turmoil

One who unleashes his wrath

In all the wrong ways

One who's lost touch

With his family

Himself

The world

One who weeps at night

From the loss of his beloved

For a man

And only a man

A broken, sad, angry soul

Lies behind he crown,

Behind the title

Behind the flames
