parting is such sweet sorrow

JULIET 
"’Tis almost morning. I would have thee gone,
 And yet no farther than a wanton’s bird,
 That lets it hop a little from his hand,
 Like a poor prisoner in his twisted gyves,
 And with a silken thread plucks it back again,
 So loving-jealous of his liberty."

ROMEO 
 "I would I were thy bird."
