Postponing doing things that I would like

Postponing doing things that I would like,
Continue doing what's required as duty.
I spend long years waiting for the spike
Of unexpectedly appearing beauty.
 
Meanwhile, I do what I am told to do,
I study, follow and create conventions,
I do my best to be content and good,
I'm working hard - and losing something precious.
 
By circumstances, I'm not given choice:
To earn my comforts, I continue struggling;
On sparse background of infrequent joys,
My path appears tiresome and crumbling.
 
While others seem successful and abloom,
My life continues as prolonged gloom.
