It's just the start

Just one normal girl only 15 years old 
Living one normal life. 
That’s till disaster struck home. 
She lived in a place quite far from here  
In a country called Lithuania 
But to them it was near. 
 In 1941 the soviets took over  
And that’s when the disaster had begun. 
Her family was targeted to be taken away  
But her mother and her brother still far away. 
Then forced to travel by train, truck, and foot 
Nothing really mattered since she knew the output.
