That is standard w/about any markup language, for example what you typed in HTML would also appear as First line Second line. The reasoning is that line breaks are not normal in text. Paragraph breaks are. Thus you take the norm and make it easy, the abnormal (or the exception) is the one that requires you do to something differently. You do, however, have paragraph breaks. That is achieved by 1 blank line in between your paragraphs, just as you would with an email, such as what I just did here. If you wish to specifically format you text with individual lines then you can use the nowiki tag or the pre tag to tell the syntax parser not to touch your text. This, however, most of the times does not achieve a readable text structure.
