A Frozen Cold Soul

Cold as ice flowing through my veins when it helps make me feel bold,
Cold cash from a small gold stash brashly sold for lost money doled,
Cold are those fast dancing answers given when I'm rapidly being polled!
Cold needs a warm band-aid to freeze a bleed the lying costs has tolled?
Cold is a blank poker stare without glare on a great hand I won't fold!
Cold as a broken pledge to boost a bets hedge into some bar type of gold!
Cold went that freak hot betting streak turning a honey pot into mold!
Cold was that slight smirk shown throwing dice when Snake Eyes I rolled.
Cold could be a feeling I'm dealing with as a result of being bought and sold?
Cold and gone high standards I pandered as they meandered from my hold!
Cold as I behold the gambled fortune foretold by never doing what I'm told?
Cold as the cockles of my Soul once burning since it froze and I've gotten old?
