Python's re.findall() returns 1 result when there are 2

This is the code

import re pattern = "prefix .+ suffix" text = "prefix x suffix prefix y suffix" print(re.findall(pattern, text))

and this is the output

['prefix x suffix prefix y suffix']

but I'm expecting to get

['prefix x suffix', 'prefix y suffix']

Why is this not working properly? re.findall() is supposed to find non-overlapping matches, but here the two matches are overlapping.
