Am I a pyromaniac,
a trait I don't desire.
They called me that the very night
I set my house on fire.
It's not that I enjoyed it,
the reason I don't know,
But it did something inside of me
to see my house aglow.

hahaha. The flow and rhyme was so funny it almost seemed like a nursery rhyme. I know the condition is very serious so I shouldn't laugh, but I enjoyed your write, although very short. Great job and good luck. Remind me to applaud you later
