Use a while-loop...

import re

p = re.compile("(pattern)")
t = "this text contains the pattern several times (pattern pattern)"
pos = 0

result = []
m = p.search(t,pos)
while m:
    g = m.groups()
    if len(g) == 1:
        result.append(g[0])
    else:
        result.append(g)
    pos = m.end()
    m = p.search(t,pos)

print result
