Critique by: Arcelie Tusoy

The poem Words by Angela Manalang Gloria is short but have a huge impact. Especially to those people who experiencing thrown with hurtful words by someone impulse them to end their life.

This poem indicates that we should be careful of the words we throw because sometimes we don't think that we're hurting their feelings,just to merely exteriorize what we want to say without thinking that the words come out from our mouth are hurtful and sometime it can cause of dissension. Example to those people who are depressed,they don't have self-esteem, even a little matter they are emotional, even a little word you throw to them it can trigger their illness and impulse them to hurt selves.

This poem also bride to those bullies that they should stop hurting their fellow being because the person they bully becomes depress and turns out to kill their selves.

It wants to tell us the importance of our words to our loved ones. We are humans and we also commit mistakes but what's more important is for us to accept our mistakes,learn from it and ask for forgiveness to the person we've hurt. Always remember that what we speak is what we feel so it would be better for us to restrain from speaking if we are angry.❤
