From the song 'I Don't Want To' by Toni Braxton:

I don't want to sing another love song...
I don't want to live my life without you, baby,
It's driving me crazy.

When love hurts, you need discipline to stay the course.....

Discipline by Meryl Gordon


I am old and I have had
more than my share of good and bad.

I've had love and sorrow, seen sudden death
and been left alone and of love bereft.

I thought I would never love again
and I thought my life was grief and pain.

The edge between life and death was thin, 
but then I discovered discipline.

I learned to smile when I felt sad, 
I learned to take the good and the bad, 
I learned to care a great deal more
for the world about me than before.

I began to forget the "Me" and "I"
and joined in life as it rolled by: 
this may not mean sheer ecstasy
but is better by far than "I" and "Me.
