Does it sound correct or can I put it in a better way?
"The dark red rose symbolizes the thorny path one has to go through to reach success"

Thanks!

Be careful of the sense. The sense is everything. You don't go through a path.

Be careful of the sense. The sense is everything. You don't go through a path. You travel it or walk it. You go through an ordeal or a forest. Also, "thorny path" works in a poetical way, the path itself not being thorny but the plants beside it. Still, your other mistake makes me wonder whether you didn't mean something else.
