“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.

“La-ew-er-uh-kh-in”

(n). Two or more people whose first words in greeting, while expectantly polite, felt like sinking back into a warm familiar comfort. People who can sense the hum of their shared fate-fractured soul when their auras vibrate in tandem regardless of distance. Whose connection existed long before the vessels that house their same-star energy were born, and found their way back to each other in defiance, and spite, of every obstacle placed by the cosmos. They are as puzzle pieces that click together seamlessly into a whole entity, and gently shave off each other’s jagged edges of insecurities in the fitting. This is a name for a bond that transcends the labels of friendship, family, or soul companion.

(n). Homies who surf the same wavelength dude! Haha, fucking righteous!
Know that regardless of wherever this life goes or the ones to follow, if there is need of us to be parted again, it will not be as empty as before. For we have, at last, connected again. I’ll always be waiting with warmth if so, as I am as patient as time and as accepting as life, for you are my lueurkin.
