Question:This poem is short but i sorta had to come up with it on the spot so what do you think?

Where to go and what to do?
who am i and who are you?
The world is large but also small
have we come to a point where we know it all?
as time drifts by we grow and change
in some ways smart in some ways strange
in the end it may be all for naught
but at least your love, i think ive caught.

I like this. The rhyming works very nicely and it is slightly humourous as well as a little...what's the word...contemplative?
It sounds almost like the chorus of a song, it has a great flow.

P.S. In response to one of the previous answers, yes, naught is a word.

If your name wasn't Internet Explorer I would say that it's good.

its great and im a published poet so i know just i dont know if its what you mean or a mistake naught might should be not

its good and it rhymes and everything
but i think it sorta flows too much (is that possible)
its almost like a cliche
mix it up a little bit
maybe make it not rhyme make it you
it sounds like u wrote more what u think sounds special or emotional instead of what expresses you
idk its good but it could be better

hope i helped...

Some of the rhyming counts are off.

the world is large but also small
have we come to a point where we know it all?

could be rephrased to say

the world is large but also small
So should we think we know it all?

as time drifts by we grow and change
in some ways smart in some ways strange

in the end it may be all for naught is awkward. I'd say
In the end it may have been for naught
but your love, at least, i think i've caught

All the same, I like it. =] The meaning is cryptic to me, but I do like the poem's style.

The poem is short but also long
in the end it may be all your thought
but at least you love your own song
