I have a few lines of text that I want to be aligned to look like this:

Here is the MWE:

documentclassarticle
usepackageenumitem
begindocument
begindescription[labelindent=1em ,labelwidth=1.2cm, labelsep*=1em, leftmargin =!, itemindent= 0pt, style = sameline]
item[Input:] $a_1,ldots,a_m$
item[Output:] Can we do some operation on the given input to get some outcome using this methodology and using $a_1,ldots,a_m$?
enddescription
enddocument

which provides me the output:

As alternatives, I have also tried using hspace, tried eqnarray to no avail.
