If I don't use SSL it works fine. I even tried creating my own certs
and it's just the same.
Please help.

TLS server engine: cannot load cert/key data is certainly a problem but evidently there is also something very wrong with /var/lib/imap/ tls_sessions.db

you might want to delete that file and restart cyrus-imapd so it gets recreated. I would presume that it like all other things cyrus- imapd should be cyrus:mail ownership and in checking on my system, that file is 600.

you might want to check dmesg/syslog/audit.log to see if selinux is involved in /var/lib/imap/tls_sessions.db issue too.
