A mapping between the operators of the bosonic oscillator and the Lorentz rotation and boost generators is presented. The analog of this map in the $q$-deformed regime is then applied to $q$-deformed bosonic oscillators to generate a $q$-deformed Lorentz algebra, via an inverse of the standard chiral decomposition. A fundamental representation, and the co-algebra structure, are given, and the generators are reformulated into $q$-deformed rotations and boosts. Finally, a relation between the $q$-boson operators and a basis of $q$-deformed Minkowski coordinates is noted.
