Lingering

It's always like this:

When it's time for her to go,

she won't find it in her heart to leave.

Not that easy, no sir.

Lingering. 

Deliberately taking her time,

getting ready in slow motion mode,

finding excuses to talk about stuff,

prolonging their goodbyes

like a stupid, middle aged Juliet

in the proverbial balcony scene 

with her Romeo.

In the end

he has to fake indignation 

to get her to leave:

''Now, go already! You're expected home...''

So she leaves.

But as soon as she's out of the door

she hurries back yet again

for one last kiss....
