I Love You and I'M Willing To Set You Free

Late nights when I can’t sleep
I sit up wondering if our love or what we have is going to last  
I love you 
But I have some many questions about your love for me
I do everything to make you happy
Even when I’m so sick I don’t even want to get out of bed
I still cook and clean for you 
To show you that I Love you
But is what I’m doing going to be good enough
You always talk about your ex you still have some of her things and her pictures on 
her cell phone
You say it ant nothing but when I look at you I can see so much more 
If you are not ready to be with me and have a relationship
Then all you got to do is tell me
I would understand
Just don’t sit here and lead me
Like your little toy puppet on a string
That you are controlling
I love you
But if I had to set you free for you to be happy 
Then I would do so
Cause I do not want you to be with me and be in pain
Cause if you love someone you should set them free
And for you I am willing to do so
Because I love you.
