Strength Carried Is Done

A tested strength some try to break...
As few come to know it in its invisible state.

Some need validation for this to keep it admitted.
And some are restricted to fulfill limitation.

It seems those who are of strength,
Seek not to keep it acknowledged.
Like a degree earned from college.
Framed to hang as a reminder...
As an enhancement to document challenges.
With accomplishments achieved.

And a strength carried is done.
Sometimes unwelcomed by those feeling threatened.
