An acrostic.

Walk me to the city of bones while the sky's still dark,

Hidden where all the hearts you broke, let me see them all,

In those hollows and jagged edges, I see who you are,

Remember the time, the time I learnt to crawl?

Learning to break through, but your claws were in too far,

Wounded and fractured, glaring back I stood tall,

I was fighting for myself but we were wheeling the same cart,

None of us gave in, look there's my heart, as broken as I recall,

Dad? is that yours, carelessly thrown on the sidewalk?
