Meaning
This reads as a gentle reflection on being seen with more kindness than one gives oneself. It can be taken to mean that love does not only admire another person, it also restores a lost sense of worth by noticing beauty that has become invisible to them. It lands when someone is struggling with self-doubt and needs to hear that being loved can help them remember their own value.
