Hi Timmy!
Ooh a haiku. These are the hardest to review, so maybe this might end up being a comment. I have to say I like the idea here, talking about the double-sided people who feel one way inside and another outside. And it also makes me think of two-faced people, so when it comes to meaning, you've pretty much got it down to peg.
I think the first line is great, and have little suggestions for the other two.
While being weak deep inside.
When it comes to haiku's, the words are generally pretty carefully chosen, because you are only allowed so few of them. So in this case, I fell like the 'while' and 'being' kind of bring it down a bit because there are much stronger words you could use to bring across the same meaning. Like 'but feeling weak deep inside,' so we know it's more how the feel about themselves, instead of how they simple 'are', and the but makes it seem like it could be their fault they feel like this, or maybe it isn't.
The double man's here.
This almost makes it seem like the 'd' should be capitalized because you are talking about a certain man who goes around calling himself the double man. I am not sure if that's what you wanted to bring across here or not? If so, then leave it be And ignore the suggestion I am about to give you right now...
I suggest you make it 'two faces for a body' (which does fit in with the syllables, just so you know.) That way you show that there is two parts to one person. Or something else which uses the word 'two' instead of double. Be as creative as you want with that.
Will see you when I come back to keep picking my way through these poems
