Lueurkin

“La-ew-er-uh-k-in”

A compound word of French “lueur” meaning a faint, everlasting glow and Appalachian “kin” meaning someone of the same nature.

(n). Two or more people who feel as though they were never strangers. Whose first words to one another, while expectantly polite, felt like sinking back into hopeful familiar comfort and becoming. Those who click into place together like pieces of a whole entity, gently shaving off the jagged edges of insecurity in the fitting. Whose connection transcends the labels of friendship, family, or soul homie, as it was created long before these vessels housed their souls at the moment their shared star ruptured. Those who can sense the hum of their fate-fractured auras coalescing together in their moments together.

(n). Besties who surf the same wavelength dude! Haha, far out!
The universe parted us, and put every obstacle in our way, but we are defiant little shits. Know that should we ever have to be parted again, I won’t be diminished, but will wait patiently for your return, as you are my lueurkin.
