Depending on context the meanings of both are complex. However, as a generality (for this answer):-

Short is a comparative term in respect to the dimension "length" - a short time, a short person, shorts (i.e. short trousers).

Small is a comparative term in respect to "volume" - a small portion, a small animal, a small difference.
