Why is it important to write a theme as a statement rather than a word or phrase?

Because it gives a better description and makes you sound better than just a word or a phrase.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you say the theme of the story article or whatever you're reading is "love" for say, you won't be able to say anything substantial about it. You need to be specific, and this is best done in a sentence Example: "Forbidden love can have terrible consequences"

Hope this helped you :)
