Bridge over a hole

So I am imagining a hole in a wide plane.  The plane would be my life.  The hole would be the hole left by my parents.  Now I'm envisioning a bit of festering on the edges of the hole.  What is festering?  Is it me?
Anyway, I am also picturing a bridge over the hole.  A simple unadorned bridge arching gently over the hole.  And then there I am, walking over the bridge.
The point is that there is a hole, a painful void that my parents ripped out of my life.  It is there and it will always be there.  It cannot be filled.  But I can get around it and over it.  It's there, it exists, but I can live with it, move around it.
