Instead of pressing the 'enter' key. Press shift+enter.
e.g.
The rain in Spain (shift+enter)
stays mainly in the plain.

You may find other problems than grouping your lines and the solution to all of them is simple. If I plan a long (or in your case, a set format) post I do it on my word processor. That allows me to read through it, run the spell checker, insert any accents or special characters I need to use. Then I just cut and paste to the blog/forum/wherever I want to post it.
Works for me.
