泣く (naku) is the Japanese verb 'to cry'. To turn this into want to cry, you simply use the stem of the verb which is 'naki' and add '~tai'. After this, you end up with 'nakitai'.

Because 'nakitai' is an adjective now, it's seen as impolite to use it on its own when talking to superiors, so if you're going to say this to anyone above you, just add 'desu' onto the end. I'd probably just use 'nakitai desu'.

If you simply want to say 'I want to cry', you'd say something like:

(私は)泣きたいです。

(watashi wa) nakitai desu.
