Have it serviced by a Corgi.
Your gas valve or thermocouple may need attention.
Not a DIY job.
By the way I used to have a Valor Dream living fire. Had more heat off a candle.

You will have either a dirty pilot on fire stopping the pilot burning properly(little air hole 1/2 " below pilot flame blocks with lint) . If the pilot is burning properly and heating the tip of thermocouple correctly and you have a valor with a slide control there is a good chance the off microswitch needs relacing.
