"It became apparent to me that
romantic love was a drive -- a
drive as strong as thirst,
as hunger..." --Helen Fisher
If romantic passion is hardwired into our brains by millions of years
of evolution, it is not an emotion; it is a drive as powerful as
hunger.
Anthropologist Fisher argues that much of our romantic behavior is
hard-wired in [her] provocative examination of love. Her case is
bolstered by behavioral research into the effects of two crucial
chemicals, norepinephrine and dopamine, and by surveys she conducted
across broad populations.

Nor slumber nor a roof against the rain,
Nor yet a floating spar to men that sink
and rise and sink and rise and sink again.
Love cannot fill the thickened lung with breath
Nor clean the blood, nor set the fractured bone;
Yet many a man is making friends with death
even as I speak, for lack of love alone.
It well may be that in a difficult hour,
pinned down by need and moaning for release
or nagged by want past resolution's power,
I might be driven to sell your love for peace,
Or trade the memory of this night for food.
It may well be. I do not think I would.
-- Edna St. Vincent Millay

I don't need none of your bedroom bruised sweet box
And I don't need none of your spoiled ass sweet talk

I'd have used "of" instead of "with"....
