The task ahead

I don't know how I'll get past the task before me
But I know I someday will
And I think that is of some comfort to me
While I struggle at it still

I normally don't write poems this short - by making myself write a poem a week, short poems seem cheating somehow. But the more I thought about it, the more I considered it complete. So take this overly long explanation as proof I had more words, they just didn't seem right here. And maybe I've written enough now to allow myself more short poems in future.
