Maven - Dependency Inheritance - Provided

I make use of dependency POMs which I will then go and include into another projects as as dependency. The problem I am having is while it aggregates the POM with those dependencies, it appears when I declare dependencies of scope, provided, those aren't included.

Is it possible to include provided dependencies in dependency POMs with a scope of provided? I often declare what APIs I need and then include the implementation as a runtime dependency.
