She was lured into the arms of swamp

Description

Изгнание. 

Они нашептали что-то ветру… Злые слова их, словно сорные семена пустили ростки и корни. 
Ей бросали камни во след, словно пытались отыскать дно в бездне ее отчаяния. 
Черствый ветер сбил ее с ног, очернил платье комьями грязи, разум - проклятиями. Топь замедляла ее шаги, манила в свои объятия… И неслышные колыбельные сонма рыб усыпляли изгнанницу.
К дыханию забытых рек присоединился ее шепот, полный горькой усталости. Ветер позабыл ее имя, но все еще рвал клыками льняное платье, дрожащее от его рыка.

They whispered something to the wind… Their evil words, like weeds have taken roots.
They threw stones at her in the wake,as if trying to find the bottom in the abyss of her despair.
The cold wind knocked her down, blackened the dress with lumps of mud, mind - with curses.
Swamp slowed her steps and lured into the arms… And inaudible lullabies of fishes lulled the exile.
The breath of the forgotten rivers was joined by her whisper, full of bitter fatigue. The wind has forgotten her name, but tore the linen dress - gray cloth trembling of his roar.

Such a fantastic image. The framing of this image is wonderful, and it's very well composed. The image almost seems to only be made of the colours black, white, and red which works so well with the mood you're trying to capture. It's dark and emotive and the little details really create such a fantastic image. The choice of fabric for her clothing, the blood around her nails, the rain ripples on the water, it all creates a wonderfully eerie image. There's darkness and vulnerability. The title of the piece "She was lured into the arms of swamp" seems almost unnecessary because the image tells that tale already. You can see the romanticism of the piece, but also the brutality of her being lured to her death. Really amazing work and I'm honestly not sure what could be done to improve it further. Fantastic work.
