Whats goodie. Now yall dont know, but I have pyrophobia if you didnt guess. Pyrophobia is the fear of extreme heat and fire. It impacts my life more than you would probably think, so I decided to write about it! Enjoy! <3 ------------------------ Pyrophobia ------------------------- Fire. Something so detrimental to life, yet I always avoid it It makes me feel trapped in a pit Most love the fire but I hate the pyre Its extreme heat and unwavering power Its strength that can increase by the hour A heat that really makes me feel weak A great tool in which most seek Feeling the unwavering heat It always makes me stay on my feet I cannot enjoy the campfires often hosted In which marshmallows and other treats get toasted I know I will have to face my fear But not this day, not this year The possibility of being burned Really only makes me concerned I fear the pain that it can cause I fear that it can turn my story into ‘was’ The world I love yet the world I hate I do not want it to end in such a fate I fear the orange, red and blue flames I fear the power it proclaims Its lasting burns Fuel my concerns As I avoid even the people that utter its name It is simply a power that cannot be tame The fear of heat While I declare defeat Against a deadly foe My world of woes That never go Whilst I sit and say I am not afraid this day But yet I lie While most ask why I have the one-word answer Pyrophobia
