It is an acrostic, usually a form of form poetry.
example:
Heartbreaking
He broke my heart
Every piece, shattered
All I wanted was his love
Real, as he promised
True, as mine for him
But he walked away
Right in the middle of paradise
Every beat of my heart
Aches for his love
Keeping the flame aglow
I will wait by the light
Never losing the hope
God will send him back to me

It's called spelling the word "phonetically". The military uses that style all the time to make sure the word in understood om both ends of the microphone.

It's called a "mneumonic".
A mneumonic is a memory trick, used for remembering a list of words. Like "apple" could stand for "A pretty place like Eden".
