A single apartment
Old and worn
Filled with things
Turned into a home
Two seperate people
Similar yet different
Gathered together
To pay the rent
Three windows in all
One in the den
One in each bedroom
To let the light in
Four gaming systems
Frequently used
To help relieve boredom
And cut a lit fuse
Five rooms in total
Two bedrooms, one bath
The den and the kitchen
In which we draw every breath
Add it all up
You get our simple life
Where he is the husband
And I am the wife

A very different approach, than what would be the norm, for the title...I liked it though. It is sweet and somewhat heartwarming, poet...
