For the customize you want to add need a knowledge of theme editing and liquid programming, Actually you need to add the code for this in you product page. So it will visible to customer and customer can enter the words they want to crave.

So if you just need to add the few lines of code for it, now it also depend on the theme that how the product is going to add in cart. Because based on theme function the text will pass in order.
